After loosing weight i have decided to wear shorts at night on holiday instead of maxi dresses and trousers (will still be taking some) do these shorts look ok? Cant decide if they are too short?!

I think you can carry off shorts but those ones don't do you lovely new figure justice. I would try some different styles

othersideofforty · 28/06/2017 15:52

Aah ok. What style would you suggest?

HOW about putting the top outside the shorts- it looks like your legs are lovely and slim, but waist wider (sorry, sounds rude, but I mean you are not hour glass or pear shaped!) and then the pretty hem
OF the shorts would be the focus? But it could be the camera angle!

I am a typical pair shape. Little waist, large hips, small boobs! Maybe i need one without a ruffle hem then. Thank you

You've got a lovely figure but I don't think those shorts would be flattering on most people.
I think some looser fit shorts might look better
Have a nice holiday

AceholeRimmer · 28/06/2017 16:13

I think you look fantastic, can't see the issue at all.

WillowWeeping · 28/06/2017 16:16

I love the shorts but I think they're a teeny but tight on you.

MurielsBottom · 28/06/2017 16:22

I think you look fab. Your legs are great, it's definitely worth trying some different styles though.

othersideofforty · 28/06/2017 16:24

I cant open the white stuff ones 😢 i like the second dorothy perkins ones. Actually got them in my bag to order them.
they are quite loose, but think because ive got my top tucked in they look tighter

I think you look fine. Can't see an issue.

othersideofforty · 28/06/2017 16:34

Ive just picked these up. But i dont think they will go with the top above, also got a lemon top so not sure

I like the first shorts, but untucked is better I reckon.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 28/06/2017 17:00

Shorts are absolutely fine but think you need an untucked top. Your legs look great!

othersideofforty · 28/06/2017 17:46

Thanks for all your replys ☺ ive just picked these up and i love them, they feel so comfy, but do they go with the tops i have?

I like the second pair they really suit you.

monkeywithacowface · 28/06/2017 17:49

Oh they look lovely with the blue and white top!

monkeywithacowface · 28/06/2017 17:52

They really flatter your figure compared to your first pair.

Ginmakesitallok · 28/06/2017 17:53

But take that bow off!

MikeUniformMike · 28/06/2017 17:53

Both pairs look really nice on you. You have good legs and don't look pear shaped. Have a lovely holiday.

imjessie · 28/06/2017 17:53

Jeez , I think they look fine .. I wouldn't bat an eyelid if I saw you on hols in that outfit , or if I did it would be to admire it . You look fab!

VilootShesCute · 28/06/2017 17:55

I think you look great in both pairs. Have a lovely holiday.

seasonschooner · 28/06/2017 17:59

Yes remove bow.

AliciaMayEmory · 28/06/2017 18:03

You have a great figure, OP, and I think the second pair of shorts look fab on you. I think you suit the looser style. I can only wear low slung shorts, do its all about finding a style that suits you. The first pair look fine, but the second even better.
